More information

Best known for her contagious laugh and easy-going interview style, Helen's love of jazz may have been instilled at birth as she was born in one of the hotbeds of the music, Kansas City, MO. But, more likely, it was engendered by her older brother, Ken, whose playing of John Coltrane, Gerald Wilson, Charlie Byrd, and Buddy Rich - Helen's earliest memories of jazz - came through the walls of his bedroom into hers.
